I took the advise and went out and got a small 5cc syringe and a 6" piece of 1/8" vinyl tubing to fix the brake pressure issues I've been having. This is what I did and it worked so well I had to post it. I removed the cover to the master cylinder. Put the vinyl tubing on the syringe then put the end onto the bleeder valve. I then pulled out as much of the fluid as would come out. I then filled the syringe with new fluid and forced it into the bleeder valve until it filled the resevoir. Some old stuff came out first so I just sucked that out and discarded it. Once the resevoir was full it still had no pressure. So what I did was pump the brake for a little while and bleed it normally. I then put the empty syringe onto the bleeder valve and opened it up. I then pulled all the air right out through the bleeder with the syringe. Very simple, very effective and very cheep. Now if I didn't dislocate my elbow at work I could ride!
